This proposal will investigate meter scale plasma density irregularities associated with turbulence in the lower ionosphere. The majority of the work will involve VHF coherent radar experiments, including operational and data analysis of a novel radar under development. The project will improve the understanding of ionospheric turbulence, by developing a fluid theory, potentially into a nonlinear regime.

该建议将研究与下层湍流相关的仪表等离子密度不规则。 大多数工作将涉及VHF相干雷达实验，包括对正在开发的新型雷达进行操作和数据分析。 该项目将通过开发流体理论，可能将其变成非线性制度，从而提高电离层湍流的理解。
